Default Re: Who is the best Omaha 8 player in the world?

[ QUOTE ]
I believe that with the hundreds of thousands of hands that any top online player plays, that they would be able to compete successfully at a game with top pros like Farha, Matusow, Duke, Greenstein...given that they were playing a game within their bankroll.

A good example...

Psychology is a big part of the game. None of the these online players have ever played with so much money on the line. The biggest games they play is 10/20 PLO8 and sometimes 25/50 PLO8 whenever it gets going, which is rare. Farha and some of the pros would play 200/400 PLO8 or higher if they were ever to play the damn game. The amount of money involved would get to most if not all of them. To go from max loss of 10-20k, to max loss 100k+ is just insane in my opinion.
